>I've seen more SUVs in the ditch than any other kind of vehicle, as I cruise on by in the snow...

Oh, I've seen 'em too. Of course, that doesn't mean all 4-wheel-drive owners act like turkeys just because they think they're invincible in bad weather. I had some dipwad in a Chevy Cavalier on my butt because I was doing the speed limit (35) on the wet road. Probably should have pulled off and let him on by so I could laugh when he ended up in a snowdrift.

I don't know if it's my tolerance and patience decreasing as I age, or if there really is a greater proportion of poor drivers out there now as opposed to, say, ten years ago.

n.b. poor driver, to me, is exemplified by massive disrespect for the traffic laws and other drivers, inability to control their vehicle in response to traffic and weather, and a lack of attention to said traffic and weather conditions.
